Complete Question Explanation
(The complete setup for this game can be found here: lsat/viewtopic.php?t=16650)
The correct answer choice is (B)
This is a very unique question, and we must determine which of the answer choices contains a pair of students that, if they give reports on the same day, can only do so on Wednesday. If we consider the rules that apply to Wednesday, the first rule tells us that G cannot report on Wednesday, and this fact rules out answer choice (A).
The third rule tells us that if N does not report on Wednesday, she must be followed by H and I on the day after N’s report. Since we know that there is a rule dealing with N and Wednesday, we should next consider the answer choices that include N. Answer choice (B) is the correct answer choice: N and H can never report together on any other day besides Wednesday—if N reports on Monday or Tuesday, H must report on the following day. Therefore, if N and H are to report together, they have no choice but to report on Wednesday.
